scutellum black or very dark brown, elytra unicolorous reddish or yellowish brown; Afrotropical and Palaearctic regions Attagenus smirnovi ZHANTIEV, 1973 10 (9) Apical segment of male antenna less elongate (Fig. 17), that of female also less elongate (Fig. 18); dorsal cuticle bicoloured: head and pronotum black or very dark brown, scutellum and elytra unicolorous dark brown; Ghana Attagenus endroedyi sp. n. Attagenus globosus sp. n. (Figs 29-30) Type material - Holotype (female): "Panama, Cordillera de San Bias, El Liano env., 1978" (JHAC). Description ofholotype -Female.
